June likely to come in with a summer-like scorch

Some of the ensemble and even operational signals for a big heat wave are very impressive in the last few days of June into early July. The rising NAO and tanking PNA suggest this could be a big one...made a whole lot worse by the incredibly hot & dry airmass bottled up over the plains for more than a month.

the 500mb heights are scary...especially for that weekend. I guess the NAEFS might finally be right.

It's impressive to see both models building a 594+dm ridge by around D10.The GFS brings it east faster but the Euro has been trending toward

the GFS over the past few runs.

12 UTC Monday Euro run

12 UTC Tuesday Euro run

^Yeah, the Euro is getting there. Theres not much if any support for a big trough in the east at that time--if it's there it will be kicked out very rapidly.

The ridge over the Central US is ready to explode northeast, and these are the right conditions for it to do so...as long as the models aren't completely wrong with their idea of the rising NAO and rapidly tanking PNA.

Regardless of how one may choose to generalize the Day 7-10 forecasts..there are some highly impressive signals beaming right now for the second big heat release of the summer. A 594+dm ridge closed over the OH Valley in late June and early July will lead to some extremely hot conditions and the potential for a heat wave.

It's all 2-3 days driving the warm anomaly though...we have not seen consistent heat this June at all. Most days have been comfortable with a smattering of quite crisp nights.

so far this month at kewr:

2 days averaged normal

12 days above normal

6 days below normal

Can you provide the breakdown for any of the three NYC stations and the departures on each date?

We can technically have a month where 30 out of 30 days were above normal but they were all +1 so it was basically meaningless. I'm curious as to how far from normal each date in each category was.

preliminary monthly climate data

the seabreeze made a big difference this month

Excellent analysis! Looking forward to the heat/humid conditions... although there is some disagreement, I know DT on facebook says no serious heat into the east at all today.

Weenies roasting to 105 on 4th of July???

This is exactly when you want the big heat, as early to mid July has historically been the best time for 100+ temps! This is like what February is for big snow storms! Bring it on!

Hopefully not 100+ again like last year. Let that happen ever few years. Lets see more like 90-95 range with dewpoints in the 60's than a bit higher to help bring thunderstorm chances.
